Here’s what you can expect for the First Alert Weather forecast in Northeast Florida and Southeast Georgia:

  • The tropical disturbance is moving westward across Central and Northern Florida, producing heavy rain along the Interstate 4 corridor as far north as Gainesville and Ocala.
  • There will only a few fast-moving rain bands for Northeast Florida and Jacksonville with gusty winds, but otherwise minimal impacts. Only isolated showers across Southeast Georgia.
  • We return to a typical summer weather pattern Wednesday-Thursday with a few afternoon thunderstorms and highs in the low 90s.
  • It will be even hotter Friday through the weekend with only isolated storms as afternoon highs soar to the mid to upper 90s.
